Raising kids is hard work. I mean, so I’m told. It’s been especially difficult while many parents are finding themselves having to teach their children from home on top of their standard work day, which would be stressful on anyone, even if you’re a rich and famous celebrity.
Hilaria Baldwin knows that first hand, and she’s got no time for criticism.

Hilaria and her husband Alec Baldwin have a busy household.
The couple has four kids, ages 2, 3, 4, and 7, and on top of that Hilaria is currently pregnant with their fifth child. Anyone would certainly find that a lot to handle, and the Baldwins are no different!
However, Hilaria’s recent revelation that they have a nanny has caused some controversy.
In an interview with Mom School Hilaria stated that the family “rented a place nearby so that our nanny could come and help us out,” which got her some criticism, as she continued to speak on the subject.
“It’s so interesting with the whole nanny conversation,” she said.
“People will write to you and say, ‘Ugh, she has a nanny’ — but that doesn’t mean that you don’t take care of your own kids. It literally means I am also working. I work every single day. And for people to make you feel badly about that is not fair,” Hilaria said.
“Neither my family or Alec’s family live close,” she went on to explain.
“Right now, my youngest kids are 2, 3 and 4, and I have a 7-year-old. It is okay to accept help, and there is no shame that other people should give you because of that,” she continued.
Well said!
Hilaria also revealed that Alec “does the dishes every day.”
Hilaria stated Alec is also in charge of “toy patrol,” which is “when we go out in our yard and the kids are playing … he’s very obsessed with ‘the lawn mower is gonna break up this’ [and] ‘this is going to get stuck in the pool filter.’ “
It looks like the Baldwins have everything figured out!
